a customer of mine uses tidy
so i try to install that
I edited configure.php5 with the line
--with-tidy \
then .build php n
it ends with checking for TIDY support... yes
configure: error: cannot find libtidy

so I did a pecl install tidy
all went fine, installed succesfully
./build php n
same error, can't find libtidy

I locate tidy.h it's in /usr/include
so I change configure.php5
--with-tidy=/usr/include \

same error

need some help to recompile php5 --with-tidy in it
you can see phpinfo on www.arteliersophia.nl/phpinfo.php

For CentOS/RHEL try using: yum install libtidy libtidy-devel and then build PHP again.
 
tnx
it returns this

No Match for argument: libtidy
No Match for argument: libtidy-devel

That's weird, I'm using CentOS 5.5 x86_64 and I get
======================================== Matched: libtidy, libtidy-devel ========================================
libtidy-devel.x86_64 : Development files for libtidy

=============================================== Matched: libtidy ================================================
libtidy.x86_64 : Shared libraries for tidy
 
my machine just isn't that cooperative

[root@appel lib]# yum install libtidy-dev

there is so little to find about this. I guess it always works normally
 
I would take a look at the yum configuration because yum installs it on my 64 and 32 bit machines running CentOS.
